Staff Software Engineer - Full-Stack, Solution Architecture

Staff Software Engineer - Full-Stack, Solution Architecture Join our dynamic and innovative gaming company, passionate about creating immersive and cutting-edge gaming experiences. We pride ourselves on a culture of creativity, collaboration, and a commitment to pushing the boundaries of gaming. If you are a highly motivated and skilled specialist passionate about the gaming industry, we want you to join our team. About the role We are building an AI-centric engineering platform where brands operate as self-reliant, B2B-style customers. You will own product features end-to-end across the full stack — leveraging AI agents to multiply delivery throughput — while architecting robust, highly-available systems on a stable, brand-agnostic platform. This is a full-time IN-OFFICE position in Vaughan. What you will do • Own delivery of product features end-to-end: design, build, verify against acceptance criteria, and ship to production. • Build and operate 3rd-party and B2B integrations on the platform, delivering brand- and customer-specific features on top of a shared core. • Use AI coding agents and automated verification to accelerate delivery, working within engineering quality gates and independent review. • Set technical patterns and unblock yourself and others across a fast-moving, multi-workstream environment. Requirements Must-haves — technical • Full-stack, production-grade. Senior/staff experience building software end-to-end: .NET / C# REST APIs and Next.js / React front-ends with server-side rendering and real-time streaming (Server-Sent Events). • Architecture at scale. Proven design and operation of highly-available, high-throughput systems. • Data. Hands-on with MongoDB, Redis (sessions, caching, sorted-set/leaderboard patterns) and PostgreSQL; chooses the right store per workload. • Event-driven systems. Building producers/consumers on an event hub / Apache Kafka; event-schema design and real-time aggregations. • 3rd-party and B2B integrations. Designing and delivering integrations against external and game-provider APIs, and building brand- and customer-specific capabilities on a stable, brand-agnostic platform. • API security. OAuth-based auth, request signing (HMAC), idempotency, replay protection, and audit logging. • AI-assisted delivery. Demonstrated use of AI coding agents/tooling to multiply throughput, and fluency working within automated verification (testing against acceptance criteria, regression, edge cases). • Hands-on production monitoring. Operating production monitoring and issue triage (Sentry or equivalent); treats observability and CI/CD as part of "done." • Experience with containerization using Docker, including writing Dockerfiles, building images, and working with a container registry. • Experience deploying and operating containerized workloads on Kubernetes, including deployments, services, config and secrets, health probes, and resource limits. • Experience with networking fundamentals — DNS, TLS, HTTP, load balancing, and reverse proxies — and troubleshooting requests end-to-end across distributed systems. • Experience with a public cloud platform (Azure preferred), including compute, identity and access management, and CI/CD pipelines. • Experience owning features end-to-end, from ambiguous requirements through deployment and production support. • Experience with a CDN or edge platform (Cloudflare preferred) and diagnosing edge-versus-origin failures. • Experience with observability tooling (Grafana, Loki, Sentry) and production incident analysis. • Demonstrated ability to learn unfamiliar technologies quickly, with strong ownership and attention to detail. Must-haves — delivery & ownership • Proven track record of delivering robust solutions within tight, fixed timeframes — quality and speed together, not one at the expense of the other. • Handles competing priorities across multiple workstreams without dropping commitments. • End-to-end ownership of deliverables, from an ambiguous problem statement through to production. • A can-do operator who embraces uncertainty and figures things out as they go — self-sufficient, decisive with incomplete information, and escalates judiciously rather than by default. • Exposure to cutting-edge AI and automation technology that is actively transforming how marketing and operations are run at scale • Genuinely interesting projects with modern tooling, and the freedom to bring your own ideas to the table • A collaborative, high-performance culture where ambition, accountability, and innovation are valued and rewarded • Clear paths for development, progression, and advancement as the business scales • A competitive salary plus discretionary bonus • Comprehensive health benefits, including extended healthcare, dental, and vision coverage. • On-site leisure facilities to switch off and recharge during the day. • Fantastic company events • On-site leisure facilities and on-site parking #J-18808-Ljbffr
